so today i busted in the 1650 at the borgata in AC, started drinking and spewed a grand in 2/5 cash games, then went to the craps table hammered (it was the exact same one a lady set the record for longest roll with one for 4.5 hours) and made 2k. like, i know the reality is i should go pro at craps (ask the_main or billzfan or anyone else in our vegas house, it's our destiny), but i'm depressed because it isn't that social, there is no long-term security, and i am very worried about a resume gap. in addition, there are no special skills that can be applied to future employers, and i'm worried that in an interview process i'm going to come off as a degenerate, even though i know i have an edge at these games. however, whenever i tell non-poker players about my winnings in craps, they always ask "how much did you lose though" and "the house always wins in the end." what should i do? GM, DFly, or anyone else who is, or is thinking of becoming, a craps professional, can you give me some advice?

I've been a craps pro for about 3 years. It's a hard way to make an easy living. On the plus side, you get to set your own hours and travel the world to play craps tourneys. On the other hand, the variance can kill you. Some pros won't ever play craps--they can't handle the swings. A brilliant player can catch cold dice, go on tilt, and lose his mind along with every single chip in front of him.

I say, if you're still in college but thinking about going pro, stay in college until you have 1 day to go. Then, drop out. That way, you get to maximize your knowledge and partying but you don't hafta worry about explaining to people why you, a college graduate, are now a pro roller. Besides, Barry Greenstein dropped out of something, and so did Bill Gates, and they're rich. Ergo, you'll be rich. Just make sure you change your name beforehand so that you have the magic initials of BG. (Even William or Robert or w/e is fine as long as you go by Bill, Billy, Bobby, etc.)

i recommend everyone to take muk up on his craps coaching, his ghosting expertise at the table is second to none, the first time i grinded craps since his coaching session in vegas was a huge victory for me only saw one roll and hit and ran the table.

Pat i think your craps skills are standard solid tag but you need to press more to really take it to the next level and become a true american craps hero

If the posts from the last 3 days are any indication then it would seem I made a huge error in judgment in believing that I didn't need to monitor the chat threads for the last few months to make sure that you guys had some idea of how to properly behave on a moderated message board. I do not intend to continue deleting posts and issuing infractions every time I open this thread so if problems persist I will be exploring alternate solutions.
